200 Word Descriptive Hair List

Last year I put together a list of descriptive words for food. This year I thought a descriptive list for hair might help you when starting to describe your characters. I included colors, and words of items that adorn the hair. There must be more words, so let’s work together on this. Please leave new words to add in the comment’s section. Thanks!

My hair is thick, curly and a pain in the bottom. These words are the polite words I use to describe it. Course, stubborn, pinging, flappy and sticking out all over the place like a witches birch broom.

I just love this list. It’s like a categorized thesaurus! Hey! Do they MAKE categorized thesauruses? I do have Descriptionary, but that’s not the same thing. I also wish there was a way to get that book that psychiatrists used of all the different personality types; there was some wonderfully ridiculous amount of descriptive words that I thought would be perfect when fleshing out character’s characteristics.

Hey Kathy,
Yes. Girls and salons are using what is called the flat iron to straighten their hair. It is very popular. I thought it would be a good addition to your list. I know my 14 y/o grand daughter and her friends would not be without one. I use one myself.

Thanks for your informative site. I check it almost every day for your updates. I’m a new author and have found many helpful imformation here. Keep up the great work. Please!

I am writing a book, a sort of dynastic love story starting in a housing commission suburb in Sydney in the 1950’s. He met a girl at a dance called Michel and she had a nick name “Pretty Mickie” as there was a song of that name around a bit earlier on.

Now she had the best hair he had ever seen, it was jet black and shining with health and her curls were lush and were all the same, The curls were all the same that is, I described them as regular curls but that isn’t quite what i am looking for, I’ve used a thesaurus and i can’t find a good word.

Incidentally he took her home after the dance things got quite pashionate but it turned out she was getting over a the break up of a long term romance and so was he; and she had parted from her lover for the same reason he had, religion; and they were on different sides of the divide. She was Italian Catholic and he was Scottish Protestant.

If it helps she looked very much like a Spanish senorita and he was a typical celtic young man about town.

I don’t know if it’s just me or if perhaps everyone else
experiencing problems with your site. It appears as
though some of the text in your posts are running off
the screen. Can somebody else please provide feedback and let me know if this is happening to them
too? This might be a issue with my browser because I’ve had this happen previously. Kudos

Excellent post. I was checking continuously this blog and I’m impressed! Very useful info specially the last part 🙂 I care for such info a lot. I was looking for this certain information for a very long time. Thank you and good luck.

I was suggested this web site by way of my cousin. I’m now not positive whether or not this publish is written via him as nobody else understand such unique approximately my problem. You are wonderful! Thanks!

this is a very elaborate list…..however believe it or not….it doesn’t have the term used to describe a type of hair that is just driving me crazy…..I have said this word many times before….but now….for some reason I cant remember it….I am looking for a word that describes a mixture of blond hair with brown hair….something like dirty blond but that is not the word…I am not sure if it’s definition is a 2 tone color or a multi-tone color…but whatever it is it is not on the list….any suggestions…??.

What a great list! I am also a faded redhead (those are natural, platinum blonde strands you see), and in my glory days, my mother said my hair was like “spun gold.”

“Ginger” is what my Welsh relatives call me.
“Rusty” was what mean boys in school called me (as in “Your brain is rusted”).
“Gingit” in Israel
“Ryzhaya bezstyzhaya” is a teasing, rhyming Russian nickname for “shameless redhead.”

I’m impressed, I must say. Rarely do I come across a blog that’s equally educative and interesting, and without a doubt, you have hit the nail on the head. The problem is something that too few men and women are speaking intelligently about. I am very happy that I found this in my hunt for something relating to this.
